1t having been my privilege to visit Patapsco
Mech this week it is with pleasure that 1 note the
congeniality and kindly hospitality of its people,
the thrift and enterprise manifest in the clearing
and cultivation of the land and the industry shown
in crops set, and now being put in. Among the
many successful truckers, and who have convent
ent and well improved buildings, are Messrs. Thos.
Todd, John Jones, VIM. Titzell, Charles Lynch,
Jacob Schmuck Guteib Stengle Alva Merritt,
John A. Merritt, George Stansbury, Geo. Graves
and Mr.. Sparks. Such is the interest and energy
of these and others in the Improvement Of the soil,
dwellings and necessary outbuildings, and the
roads that Patapsco Neck section of the 18th dis
trct can be considered the garden spot or most
desirable. 1t has three churches Grange hall,
and stores, and it is regretted, many taverns.
The new M. E. Church stands as monument
of religious interest and consecrated wealth as the
people gave literally only for the glory of God,
and the doing of good. 1t is a most beautiful
edifce and the workmanship gives satisfaction
The furniture is of the best material and most
beautifully finished. The whole cost was about
81, 600 and most of the amount has been provided
an Indebtedness of from five to seven hundred
dollars remaining. It is the intention of the trus-
tees to grade and sod the premises, and place
shedding near. The people should be congratu-
lated on their success.
The County Grange held its quarterly meeting
at Patapsco Grange hall on Tuesday last and
proved one of its best meetings. Mr.. VIM. B.
Sands opened the meeting in the absence of the
Master. Mr.. H. O. Devries and others made ad-
dresses of much interest. Installation of officers
was had and among the number Messrs. Wash
ington Stevenson, John E. Swift, Andrew Rogers,
